Reader Reviews:

Exposes the charlatans for what they are. (40/74 people found this helpful)

Prof. Karsh has done a brilliant job exposing a certain class of academics who have embarked on a campaign to deliberately falsify Israeli history. They exploit their positions in top academic institutes to deliberately invent events that never took place, put words into the mouths of Israel’s leaders, omit key passages in archival documents for political reasons. At best, these academics are propagandists. The book thoroughly tackles the most common myths invented by Morris, Shlaim and company, and Prof. Karsh uses authentic sources such as government declassified documents to refute many commonly believed innovations.

The book also contains an afterword, which further debunks popular myths, which are commonly believed in Marxist circles. This book is strongly recommended to any serious seeker of truth in the Arab-Israeli conflict.
